Crit itemization is lacking

I was looking into alternatives for crit items after you get infinity edge in summoners rift. The only items are 30% Crit items. There is no offensive or offensive/defensive hybrid item that offer less crit when completed (besides trinity force). Could we get more options in this area?

That's largely intentional: 100% crit is very powerful (so requiring you to waste a bit of gold to get it is acceptable), but increments of 20% or less crit are hard to appreciate unless they have really good passives like Essence Reaver or Infinity Edge.

Crit itemization is probably at the best place it's ever been, honestly. IE + Essence Reaver + 2 attack speed items is a really powerful 100% crit combo. All four AS / Crit items are viable, even if some are stronger than others. Trinity Force is still strong on several champions, and IE and/or Essence Reaver are really great.

One example is we have boots that offer many different kind of stats. Why not have boots that offer crit?

But honestly, there's a lot more ability to build crit this season than ever before.
